Reality star and transgender activist Caitlyn Jenner will reportedly attend Donald Trump's upcoming inauguration on January 20, according to Us Weekly. She'll be one of few mainstream celebrities attending the ceremony, which will also be attended by the Obama family, as well as Hillary and Bill Clinton. A representative for Jenner told Vanity Fair that they couldn’t confirm Jenner’s attendance at this time.

Jenner, a longtime Republican, made cautiously optimistic remarks about Trump during his campaign, previously saying she's “not a big fan” of his macho attitude, but thinks he would be “very good for women's issues.”

She also spoke at the Republican National Convention, one of few big-name stars to attend the event. “It was easy to come out as trans. It was hard to come out as Republican,” she joked.

In a later interview in August on HBO's Any Given Sunday, she told host Bill Simmons that she hasn't “outwardly supported” any candidate, including Trump, but that she supports the Republican Party and believes they have the “better opportunity to bring this country back to, really, as close as you can to what it was.” Jenner also used her political opinion to nearly sway Kim Kardashian West toward the conservative side, though the reality superstar later declared she would be voting for Hillary Clinton.

Unlike Kardashian West's husband, Kanye West, Jenner has not met with the president-elect since his election. Perhaps they'll cross paths at one of his inaugural balls, which Trump promised on Wednesday would take place on a “very, very special” and “elegant” day.
